View Full Version : Getting clean subtitle previews in SW with avisynth

I've been working with loading a video in subtitle workshop, from ripped VOB's, using avisynth. Everything worked pretty well, altho the subtitle preview in sw had a huge black block as the background for the subtitles... I'd heard of someone with a similar problem on these forums, and they fixed it using ConvertToRGB, but that didn't seem to work for me (I am using dgmpgdec's plug-in in my avs script, which I believe uses yv12?)

I managed to sort-of fix the problem using the "force using regions" option in sw. This fixes the black background, but leaves a purplish fringe around subtitles... it gets the job done, but I was just wondering if anyone had seen this problem and had a more elegant solution to it?

Thanks,
Jason
